IMPORTANT! **"The rest of the line is in doubt due to defective records." This Thomas and son Ezekiel have no definite records as being in our family line but an educated guess due to other information. No mention of his wife or children. This line of Bakers may or may not have migrated to the Beekman Patent in eastern NY, or perhaps through CT directly to Warren, Herkimer County, NY about 1800.
